Jerusalem Artichoke

Buying Tips

Jerusalem artichokes can be found in the produce section of most health food stores, specialty markets, and supermarkets. Select Jerusalem artichokes that are firm and fresh looking, avoiding those with a soft texture or wrinkled skin.

Varieties

Jerusalem artichokes are a variety of sunflower.

Preparation, Uses, & Tips

Scrub Jerusalem artichokes just before using, leaving the skins on. Cut them into thick slices, drop into boiling, salted water, and cook until tender. Toss with butter or olive oil, salt, and pepper. Or cook them with cubes of butternut squash and yellow onions for a hearty stew.

Storing

Store them in a plastic bag in the refrigerator for up to a week.
